Sapphire Radeon R7 260X OC Review

Packaging:

The packaging for the Sapphire Radeon R7 260X OC is pretty straight forward and typical for what one would expect for a video card. The branding, product, and highlighted features are clearly marked on the exterior. The interior packaging does a sufficient job of ensuring that the video card is well protected while in transit.

Accessories:

Included along with the card itself are a DVI-to-VGA adapter, 6 PIN to 4 PIN Power Cable, and a Crossfire bridge cable. Also included are a quick installation guide and a driver CD.

Closer Look:

The Sapphire Radeon R7 260X OC is equipped with a single cooling fan. This isn’t all that uncommon for this level of video card. There are models of the 260X on the market that feature dual fan solutions, so it will be interesting to see how efficient this single fan design is under load.

In addition to the single cooling fan, Sapphire Radeon R7 260X OC is equipped with dual heat pipes for heat dissipation.

As stated in the specs, the connector side of the card provides one Dual-Link DVI-I, one Dual-Link DVI-D, one HDMI, and one DisplayPort.
